Systems and methods for generating media asset representations based on user emotional responses

摘要

Systems and methods for generating a representation of a video media asset for inclusion in a media asset listing for the video media asset is considered. User emotional responses that occur while the video media asset is presented to the user are monitored using a processor. A user emotional response selection criterion is retrieved from a storage device, and based on the retrieved user emotional response selection criterion, one of the monitored user emotional responses is selected. An identification is made of the portion of the video media asset presented to the user when the selected one of the user emotional response occurred, and a representation of the identified portion is generated for the video media asset for inclusion in a media asset listing for the video media asset.

1. A method for generating a representation of a video media asset for inclusion in a media asset listing for the video media asset, comprising:
monitoring, using a processor, user emotional responses that occur while the video media asset is presented to a user; retrieving, from a storage device, a user emotional response selection criterion that corresponds to the video media asset, wherein the retrieving comprises:
identifying an attribute of the video media asset;comparing the identified attribute with user emotional response selection criteria stored in the storage device; andretrieving the user emotional response selection criterion associated with the attribute; determining, for each monitored user emotional response, a type of the user emotional response; determining at least one mood associated with the identified attribute; searching the monitored user emotional responses for a given monitored user emotional response based on the retrieved user emotional response selection criterion and for which the determined type is similar to or different from the determined at least one mood; identifying which portion of the video media asset was presented to the user when the given user emotional response occurred; and generating, for the video media asset, a representation of the identified portion for inclusion in a media asset listing for the video media asset.
